- the air conditioning control device 51 runs an air conditioning control program pre-stored in a storage circuit upon input of an operation signal of the air conditioning device 1 for vehicle for vehicle from the operation panel 52 while the vehicle is in operation.
- TEO target outlet air temperature
- the air conditioning control device 51 determines control states of the fan drive motor that drives the air conditioning blower 7 , the various electric actuators in the air conditioning case 2 , and so on according to the target outlet air temperature (TAO), and outputs control signals to the various actuators so as to obtain the determined control states. Subsequently, the air conditioning control device 51 again repeats a routine: reading the detection signals and the operation signals ⁇ calculating the target outlet air temperature (TAO) ⁇ determining new control states ⁇ outputting control signals.
- TEO target outlet air temperature
- a control state of the drive motor of the air conditioning blower 7 is determined according to the target outlet air temperature (TAO) with reference to a control map pre-stored in the storage circuit. More specifically, a volume of blown air is controlled to be in the vicinity of a maximum volume by assuming that a control voltage outputted to the electric motor in an extremely low temperature range (maximum cooling range) and an extremely high temperature range (maximum heating range) of the target outlet air temperature (TAO) is a maximum voltage. The volume of blown air is decreased as the target outlet air temperature (TAO) nears an intermediate temperature range.
- a control state of the electric actuators of the first and second air mixing doors 10 is determined in such a manner that a degree of opening of the first and second air mixing doors 10 coincides with a target degree of opening (SW).
- the target degree of opening (SW) is calculated by a known manner from the outlet air temperature TE of the cooling heat exchanger 8 detected by the cooling heat exchanger temperature sensor, the hot water temperature Tw of the engine coolant detected by the water temperature sensor, and so on.
- the first and second air mixing doors 10 are at a maximum heating position (MaxHot). Hence, the first and second air mixing doors 10 fully close the first and second cold air bypass passages and fully open on the sides of the heating heat exchanger 9 . Also, when a degree of opening (SW) is 0(%), the first and second air mixing doors 10 are at a maximum cooling position (MaxCool). Hence, the first and second air mixing doors 10 fully open the first and second cold air bypass passages and fully close on the sides of the heating heat exchanger 9 .
- a control state of the electric actuator of the inside and outside air switching door 6 is determined according to the target outlet air temperature (TAO) with reference to a control map pre-stored in the air conditioning control device 51 .
- the outside air mode to introduce outside air is selected preferentially as a rule.
- the inside air mode is selected at the time of the maximum cooling during which the target outlet air temperature (TAO) is in the extremely low temperature range and the inside and outside air bi-level mode is selected at the time of maximum heating during which the target outlet air temperature (TAO) is in the extremely high temperature range.
- the outlet mode is successively switched as follows while the target outlet air temperature (TAO) rises from the low temperature range to the high temperature range: face mode ⁇ bi-level mode ⁇ foot mode.
- TAO target outlet air temperature
- the face mode is selected mainly at the time of cooling during summer when the target outlet air temperature (TAO) is in the low temperature range.
- the bi-level mode is selected mainly at the time of air conditioning during spring and autumn when the target outlet air temperature (TAO) is in the intermediate temperature range.
- the foot mode is selected mainly at the time of cooling during winter when the target outlet air temperature (TAO) is in the low temperature range.

Hence, a physical size of the air conditioning case 2 in a front-rear direction of the vehicle (horizontal direction) can be reduced.
- a slide lower end position of the first air mixing door 10 a is positioned more on the vehicle rear side (on the side of the heating heat exchanger 9 ) and lower than the slide upper end position of the second air mixing door 10 b .
